The debut Institut Polaire LP Make Your Own Mayflower was recorded at Melbourne's Audrey Studios by Craig Pilkington (The Lucksmiths, The Blackeyed Susans, Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu) and sees the band pickup where they left off - adding a decidedly more worldly and introspective edge to their layered melodic sound, but still sounding uniquely and unmistakably like Institut Polaire.

Institut Polaire have not only weathered the storm of a two year hiatus, but have emerged with arguably their strongest lineup yet and stand ready to finally deliver on the promise of their early recordings.
